FREE Legal Helpline

GAR has an exciting new benefit for members! The Legal Helpline is a FREE service for Georgia REALTORS® which will help you with questions regarding contract forms, ethics/arbitration, and license law. Additionally, members may inquire about basic legal questions.

How It Works
The Legal Helpline is available immediately. To utilize the Helpline, you will visit the password-protected page on the GAR web site (link below), input your NRDS number and review your contact information, carefully read and acknowledge the user agreement, and then submit your question.

Questions are sent to Weissman, Nowack, Curry & Wilco, P.C., which is the law firm of GAR’s longtime general counsel, Seth Weissman. Depending on volume, users can typically expect an answer to their question within 24 hours.

Please note that the purpose of the Helpline is not to draft contracts or special stipulations, write opinion letters or negotiate with other REALTORS® or parties.

Find Out If You Are Eligible to Make Your Home More Affordable. HUD and the Treasury Department have launched a new website to help consumers understand the administration’s loan modification program. The site offers a number of tools to help borrowers determine if they are eligible to participate in the program. Visit www.makinghomeaffordable.gov to see if you are eligible.
